Father Htacinthe's Address. Pere Hyacinthe concluded Lis ad dress in New York as follows : j In modern society celibacy exists for the the sake of Rood, but these exceptions, if you make the rule, are against God and nature. Celibacy is cowardice if it does not glorify marriage. The Apostles have said marriage is honora ble, marriage is spotless before God and man. The great object in view is the reconciliations of heaven - and earth, of the present life with the fu ture to secure union on earth, union in the city, in the nation, in humanity waa the thought of Jeau3. Christ. The foundation of your people is the Bible.'a book that speaks of God, the living' word of Jesus Christ. In the admirable manifesto from your Presi dent, there shines through his words a christian faith. A belief in Jesus is at the root of this nation. May Jesus Christ protect your country and devel op it. Old Europe is preparing amid strife for the unity of religious and material prosperity. When I return, I shall tell Euiope I have found here liberty associated with Christianity, and that I have been among a people vho do not think that to be free they must be separated from God.' Htjrling a Thought. Mrs. E. C. Stanton, the Woman's Itight Prosidentess, writes these grand, elo quent words and prints them : They who would 6hut the flood gates against every crime in the Dec alogue, must huil back through tbe ages the monstrous thought that wo man was made for man !' Well,-you hurl it back far enough through the ages, and it will hit tbe 18th verse of the second chapter in the Bible, which reads : And the Xord God said : It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a help meet for h'm.' " The Lord thought that w is a good thought, and He did it. Mrs. Stan ton eays it is a 'monstrous thought,' aud wants to 'hurl it back through the ages.' A Queer Law Suit, One Captain Herbert won a remarkable law suit in Adair county, Iowa, the other day a suit conducted on both sides of the North river. The plantiff and his lawyer Jived on one side of the river, and the defendant, his law yer, and the magistrate on the other. The parties met on , either bank ot the stream, which was too high to be crossed. The 'Court' took his seat on. a 4amp log, and ordered the trial fb proceed. 1 or one hour and a half, the attorneys slung law and logic across a hundred feet of Sep tember freshet, " at the expiration of which period the Court, mounted a stump, and lifting up his voice to a frightful pitch, hurled his decision across the stream. Female Voters. It ia stated that a large number of females are entitled to vote at the municipal elec tion of the towns of England. At Lincoln, 300, females voters are on the registry; at Stanford, 150 ; at East Eelford, CO, out of 514 voters on the list ; and at Norwich, 1,300. out of a total of 10,000. From these facts it is argued ; that in ten years' time, the majority ofj the women in En gland will enjoy the right to vote. Mr. Peabody, twenty-five years ago, offered hia Jband, heart and for tune to an American lady then visiting London. They were accepted. Sub sequently Mr'. Peabody learned that the lady was already engaged when she accepted the new suitor, and re baking her. lack of sincerity, sum marily broke .the contract, , English locomotives are reckoned! to last for about 350,000 train miW I though on some roads this may go up to 400,000. or even 500,000 miles, as the wear and tear depends pretfily on circumstance. : Tog Boat on Columbia .Bar. A corespondent of the Herald gives a long and interesting 'description of the tugboat ; Astoria, lately built at San Francisco and now at work on the Columbia Bar, which, is destined to do so much for ourcommerce by facil itating the passage of sailing vessels coming and going with Oregon freights: This tug boat was built last sum mer, under the direction of Capt. A. M. Simpson, by a man named Allen, and is owned by a company, consis ting of A. M. Simpson, Geo Flavel, A. Crosby, A. C. Famsworth aud A. D. Wass. The three latter gen- tlemenare Columbia River Bar Pilots, and they with Capt. Geo. Flavel, own at least three-fourths of her. Captain Simpson and Flavel are tbe heaviest owners. It was expected she would cost them about 830,000 bui tjie whole will be little less than $40,000. She is built of Oregon o ik, and coDDer fastened. She i 101 feet in length, with 24 feet beam, and draws 6i feet without ballast. The space between decks is at pres ent divided on into tour c nupartment?; the forward part will be used as a sleeping place for deck hands. The next department is the engine room. which is about 32 teet long by about 10 feet wide, the space on either side of this room being occupied by coal bunkers. '' The next apartim-nt is at present used for a galley, but this is only temporary, as it is the intention to have the galley on deck, in the fore t art of the ship, immediately over the beiler. The next apartment is the cabin, which is large and ample, and hted up with six bunks, three on either ' side. The deck is clear, with the exception of a house which covers the engine- room. The 'wheel ' is immediately astern of this house, thereby affording protection to the pi lot in rough seas. She is schooner rigged, and could make considerable headway with a fair wind, were her machinery at any time to z)VZ out. Her machinery is of the most sub stantial character, and its power is immense. Her engine was formerly in tho 8teameT Constitution. Its cylinder is 34 inches in diameter, with a stroke of 34 inches. Her boiler is tubular; 18 feet long and 94 inches iu diameter. Her pumps, two in number, are 4x6 iuches in di ameUrand 24x8 inches in stroke. The engine is low pressure, but is so constructed that she may be driven by either hij;h or low pressure. Her propeller is -9 feet 6 inches in diame ter, and has four flangrs Although she arrived here but yesterday mor ning, after a unsually long voyage, having had to take shelter in two ports, owing to the severity of the weather, but piiucipally owing to her want of fuel, to-day she has gone to work, aud instead ot doing tilings by piecemeal, as has heretofore been the custom with river steamers when tow ing, she, Samson like.made fast to no less than three at once the U. S. sch. Humbolt, the Mary A, Clinton aiid the Bell, towed them up to Cath lamet Ba', in the neighborhood of the Prairie, where they intended to winter. The tug will be in com mand of Capt. Snow, with Mr. John C. Dorcy, Chief Engineer. I'll Take what Father Takes. There is food for thought in the story that is told of a young man who for the first time had accompanied his father to a public dinner. The waiter asked him, 'vJiat will you take to drink V Hesitating for a moment, he replied, 'I'll take what father takes.' The answer reached his father's ear, aud instantly the full responsibility of his position flashed upon him. Quicker than lightning varieus thoughts passed through his mind, and in a momerthis decision was made ; and iu tones tremulous with emotion, and to the a-tonishment of those who knew him, he said, 'Waiter, I'll take water.' Fathers, take warning, for the decision of your sons to Hake what father takes' may not come to your ears so opportunely? Here is a funeral speech which a Paris paper assures us was actually pronounced at Moutmartre the other day, by a father at the grave of his son : 'Gentlemen,' said the father full of emotion, ; 'the body before nie was that of my son. He waa a young man in the prime of life, with a strong constitution which ought to have in sured him a hundred years. But mis conduct, drunkenness and debauch ery of the . most diograceful kind, brought him in the flower of age to the grave which you see before you. Let this be an example to you and your children. Let ns go hence.' Cure for Poison Oak. A cor respondent of the Alta gives this as a cure for poison oak : Simply bathe the parts with hot water, as hot as can be born, keep in creasing the temperature until it can be used no longer without bnrniug. Press a soft towel against the parts so as to absorb tbe water and avoid rubbing : then apply a rather strong solution ot navy or plug chewing to bacco on the poisoned places and let it dry. 1 he solution is best when the water is hot; : I have tried this and have cured, or very nearly so, in two to four days, at the most. ; A young lady's opinion of the bon net of the season : 'Oh. the . bonnets of mv cirlhood the kind I wore to J C3 school ! I really thought them pretty. a i. 1 at .i 1 must have been a loot. Aua yet i used to think myself on hats a jaunty miss. Perhaps I was, as fashion went ; but what was that to this 1 Oh, the lovely little pancake the char minff little mat 1 It makes my head so level, and so very, very flat !' " A Northwestern paper tells this mournful yet romantic story : 'An Iowa soldier, supposed to have been killed lone ago, returned to his family, and found to his sorrow, that his wife, supposing him to be dead, had re mained single. He had got his eye on another woman, and hoped she had spliced.' : humorous French parer wrs recently confiscated for speaking f Eugenie as 'our venerable EmprefS.' A Child's jL tier. Mark Twain Bays : the only letter he received when abroad, that really did him much good or told him any news of interest, was the following, from a juvenile niece in St. Louis, and touched him up iu a few passages, but he rather likes it, and considers that children are your only true letter writers. St. Louis, 1SG9. Uncle. Mark, if you was here I could tell you about Moses in the bulrushes again. I know it bettt r now. Mr. Snowberry has got his leg broke off a horse. He was riding it on Sun day. Margaret, that's the maid, Mar garet has laken all the spittoons and slop buckets and old jugs out of your room, because she says she don't think you are coming back any more, you have been gone to long. Ifissy McElroy's mother has got another little baby. She has them all the time It has little blue eyes like Mr. Swimley that boards there, and looks just like him. 1 have got a doll ; but Johnny Anderson pulled one of the legs out. Miss Dusenber- ry was here yesterday. I gave her your picture, but she didn't want it My cat has got more kittens oh! you can't think twice as many as Lotta Beluen s And there s one, such a sweet little buff one with a short tail, and I. named it for you. All of them's got names now Gen eral Grant, and Halleck, and Moses, and Margaret, and Deuleronomy, and Captain Semmes, and Exodus, and Leviticus, and Horace Greely all named but one, and I am saving it because the one I named for you's been sick all the time since, and I reckon it'll die. (It appears to be mighty ruogh on the short tailed kit ten for naming it for me. I wonder how the reserved victim will stand it?) Uncle Mark, I do believe Haltie Caldwell likes you, and I know she thinks you are prcttv, because 1 heard her say noth'ng could hurt your good looks nothing at all she said, even if you were to have the small pox ever 60 bad, you would be just as good looking as you were be fore. And ma says she's ever o smart. (Very.) So no more this time, because General Grant and Mo ses are fighting. The Poor Paksox. 'I pity the poor parson,' quoth my uncle Toby. But did uncle Toby ever read the fol lowing story, which the Christian Witness (Boston), by one of its con tributors, vouches lor : The former pastor of a country church meets witli his successor aifd inquires Mr. -is still living V 'Oh, yes ;( iie of the best men in the parish ; not liberal, but a good man and very rich.' 'What dees he do for your sup port V Well, not much, but he pays his pew-rent.' 'Does he sell vinegar V 'Oh ! yes ; he has one of the larg est orchards in the parish, and is so conscientious his cider is all made into vinegar.' 'Does he give you any of his vnie gar?' Not he.' 'So itwas in my day. His vinegar was made to sell. When his daugh ter sickened and died I went there almost every day, five miles off. When fhp died she had a great funeral, and I sat up most of the night to write a funeral sermon. I called the next day. Then a few days af ter I went, and thought I would carry my vinegar jug which just then happened to be empty. The jug was fill.'d. I did not like to take it away without offering to pay, and so I said meekly as possible , 'What shall I pay yon V 'Well, said my good parishioner, 'I generally charge twenty-five cents a gallon, but sc; ing as how you have been kind to me in trouble, etc., I won't charge you but twenty cents.' At this time I had eleven children and was living on a ea aiy of six hundred per year. A Wisconsin paper (the llacine Journal) of the 25 th. has the fol lowing' curious item : 'Early Friday morning Mr. Henry Taylor, a gentle man living just out of the city, hitched his carriage horse to a post near his bee hives, and went m to breakfast, While eating he heard a terrible com motion in the yard, aud on looking out to ascertain the cause, he saw that the bees (five swarms) had attack ed the horte. The poor beast was frantically endeavoring to break loose, uttering at the time the most horrible screams of agony. Mr Taylor rushed out, cut the halter, and en deavored to drive the swarm off, and in so doing was stung iu a most fright ful manner about the head and iirms. The horse lived only about an hour af ter he was attacked ; his agony was fearful to behold.' One Mr. Foster and his sons per formed in London on a tight rope while playing on violins, and wound up a series of somersaults, each playing- a fiddle, without missing a note during the performance. The spec tacle of an orchestra performing a symphony by Beethoven, keeping time with the conductor's baton, in a series of jumps and somersaults, would be sure to attract a great crowd. . The New York Evening Exfress announces that 'Gepige Francis Tra n has commenced a suit against the Kansas Pacific Railway Company, iu which he claims the Bum of $300,000. He has also brought a suit against, the Union Pacific road, .in which he says he is entitled to recover "a similar amount.' John G. Saxe, at a hotel in the West the otner day, undertook to carve a piece of beef wh eh was so tough that the carving kuife made lit tle impression upon it. The poet laid down the knife 'and fork, glanced around and spoke. ; I 'GentL men. said he, 'that's an infringement on Good year's patent !' Do you call this a trunk V grow led a dejectt d portrr : 'It only needs a lihthing-iod to be mistaken for a " ....... t j. boarding house.' MISCELLANEOUS.

Probably never he'ore fn the whole history ol medicine, has anything won so widely and sodeeply upon the confidence of mankind, as this e? celtent remedy for pulmonary complaints. Through a long series of yenrs, and amcng most of the races of men it has risen hightr and higher in their estimation, as It has become better known. Its ntisform character and iKiwer to cure the various affections of the lunps and throat, have matte it known as a reliable pro tector against them. While adspted to milder forms of diseae and to young children, it is at the same time the most effectual remedy that can be given for incipent conpuuipticn, and the danperoas affections of tne throat acd lungs. As a provision againts sudden attacks of CROUP, it should he kept on hand In every family, and Indeed as a I are sometimes subiect to coldd adt cojKhs, all should be provided with this antidote for them. Althoni.h settled COXMJMPTION is thoucht In curable, si ill great numlitnl of cases where the dis ease seemed settled, have been completely cured, and the pmtient restored to sound health by tbe CHERRY PECTORAL, t'o complete Is Its mastery over the disorders of the Lunss and Throat, that the most olisiinste of Ihemj ieid to it When nothing else could reach them, under the CHERRY PECTO RAL they subside and di'nppear. SIMiEltS AND PUBLIO SPEAKERS find great protection trora it. ASTHMA is always relieved and often wholly cured by it.. BRONCHITIS is penerallv cured hv taking the CUEKRV PkCTOPAL in small and frequent doses. So generally are its virtues known .hat we need not publish the certificates of them here, or do more thMi assure the public that its qualities are fully maintained. AVER'S A(JUE CURE, I For Fever and Ague, Intermittent i Fever. Chill Fever, Remittent Fe- j er, Dumb Ague, Periodical or I Hiiious Fever, iScc, and indeed all I the affections which arise from ma larious, marsh or miasmatic poi sons. As its name implies, it does CURE, and does nt fall. Containine neither Arsenic, Qunin2. Bistnnth. Zinc, nor any other mineral or poisonous substance whatever, in in nowise lnjutes any patient. The nnmber a-d importance of its cures in the ague dis trtcts, are litterary beyond account, and we believe without a parallel in the history of Azue medicine. Our pride is gratified by the acknowledgments we recei.e of the radical cures affected in obstinate cases, and where other remedies had wholly tailed. Cuacciimated persons, either resident In, or trav elling through miasmatic localities.
